Habs Season Thread: 2024-25 Regular Season

We have a pretty garbage mayor, but not as bad as Chicago or San Fran etc.. Traffic is a nightmare, and there is construction 24/7 and nothing actually gets done lol
The REM got done. People in Toronto are still waiting for a comparatively minor subway line extension that was "started" in something like 2011.
 
Good yearly reminder for some of you.


For those that can't access it, I'll summarize the 5 points addressed at every fan base.
  • You’re overrating your prospects and young players

  • The refs aren't out to get you (there is no conspiracy against your team)

  • The media doesn't hate your team (probably, there is exceptions)

  • You're not the loudest fans in hockey

  • Your rival fan base isn’t as awful as you make them out to be

That’s correct… the Make Beliefs fanbase is worse than awful

The last one is wrong
 
And to think that some people here actually pay money to subscribe to the Athletic just to get access to this type of hard hitting sports journalism.
 
yeah he makes me puke
Same. As a progressive I fundamentally believe that once you do the time required based on what the law state’s no punishment more is necessary. In fact, the extrajudicial punishments for LM that assholes like Arpon have called for are both vindictive and excessive.
The point of the justice system is to reform and rehabilitate people who commit crimes, with the goal of full reintegration in society such that they don’t commit crimes again.
Unfortunately no amount of punishment will make a victim feel better.
Arpon is a leftist Old Testament regressive.

Now that is an argument I can buy. Count doesn't care if Mailloux kills people in his spare time so long as he can help the team win. He thinks Basu should just be a cheerleader.
 
He sounds like a careerist using one-upmanship to promote himself within this media tribe. Hard to know if anything is genuine or not, frankly.

Thank you. There are a lot of people who have forgotten the progressive approach to justice and rehabilitation.

THIS!
So much this.
He’s a product of our times.
Every time he comes on tee vee I long for John Lu. He’s my favourite broadcaster. Well… Him and that basketball guy who fell into hockey with his Stuart Smalley style deep thoughts…
